[edit] Merge proposal - unenthusiatic

These are two different stations with different names, different fuels, different ownerships and a break in continuity of some 25 years. Is there a strong case to merge rather just expand each with a link to the other as at present? Also last time I looked the UK Power Stations infobox did not cope well with multiple dates etc. If there is a concensus for merger I would vote for merging Enfield into Brimsdown rather than vice versa - it is simply a paragraph copied and pasted from the Brimsdown article a couple of weeks ago. Brimsdown was a very major landmark in north London (visible as far afield as Ally Pally and similar hills) for decades and had a major impact on the industrial development of the Lea Valley in the 20th century. It certainly merits an article on notability grounds. I am not sure there is anything more to be said about the current gas-fired station than is already in the stub article with its notability flag - beyond perhaps something to indicate how often it gets used in current market conditions.
